Maybe I 'ave read th' articles, I tend to find bunches o' stuff on th' road. If I 'ad known ya I would 'ave cut 'em out and saved 'em. Dun't give up now, babe. You 'ave a job and a pretty face, in other words, everythin'.
*Sets his fork and knife down*
Sleepin' wi' friends? Never good, never good. Are ya still wi' your fiance? Wha' was he like?

*shakes head*
No, it wasn't. But it all worked out in the end.
*thinks about her engagment with George and closes her eyes, as she turns her head down*
No. No we're not.
*takes a sip*
Geore was- amazing, but, he was gone so much and at that time, who he was related to, and who his friends were put him in a dangerous situation- I got sick of worrying if he was coming home alive. And I hated the feeling of helplessness. I hated feeling scared. I wanted someone who was going to be there for me, and he wasn't. When I met Devlin, it just seemed right. I sound so horrible saying this, but he was there. But even when he wasn't I felt safe, even when I almost-
*begins to say died but cuts self off. The twins could come back at any time*
Well, he made me feel safe and loved, and George couldn't do that for me.

He should give ya th' time o' day, he was your fiance, eh? Things worked out for ya with Devlin after? And your lucky friend? I never could keep th' friendship after crossin' the friendship line.
*Gulps his wine, listening*
Wha' do ya miss most 'bout everyone? Sorry to intrude, but if there's one thing I get, it's pain. If it's stirring enough I could string th' words into a ditty.
*Moves his hand closer to her hand on the table*

Dev and I broke up a few months ago because I couldn't find a way to stay in touch with him. He was a professional quidditch star and I didn't want to hold him back.
*laughs sadly about the friendship line*
Yes, well, Sebastian and I...
*shakes head and rolls eyes with a smile*
It's hard to stay mad at eachother for very long.
*looks up*
You really could?

*Stays open-mouthed for a moment or two, thinking*
Sebastian? 'Ey, I met him jus' th' other day! He din't say much to me, but I thought he din't like your gender...
*Leans in closely*
'Course I could if I get a few more details. Details are th' most important part. Th' swish of a cloak, an accidental touch, the feelin' o' a room. If I feel tha' your tale can relate to others and me then I could create summat.

You met Sebastian?
*laughs*
Well, He swings both ways. He's quite a charmer when he wants to be.
*thinks*
hm... I could describe the night George and I met and got engaged, the night Dev and I met, then the bar fight, then when Dev snuck over to the Chateau and we broke up, if you'd like

*Rests his hand on top of her hand*

*shakes head* Of course not, I’d be glad to. *looks at his hand, not having had one on hers in a long time. Has her eyes look like they’re looking at the table though in deep thought* Well, George and I first met in his shop, He was dancing with a broom like a complete idiot *laughs* And we went out for drinks and we clicked. He was funny, bright, and caring. Especially funny. He had this bright red hair too that would pop out at you, it was hilarious. We had an argument once, he thought I didn’t love him and that I was dating him as a joke, but he was the first guy I’d been in love with. We both ended up going to the leaky without knowing it, and my brother, Antoine was staying there. He liked to give me problems, taunt me since we were kids. George came by and saved me from that. Then there was the time that he had to leave for Christmas on a trip with the family or something, and I stayed behind during my birthday. I had a few tough run ins, but I wouldn’t tell him because It’d put him in danger. I almost killed him when he came to the door because I thought he was the person who was coming for me. We got into a huge fight about it, until my friend came by and told me my brother was- *takes a breath and closes her eyes* Murdered. We found him hanging from a pole in knock turn ally. While we waited for my parents to come from France, he had to leave on a business trip. While he was gone I met Devlin at some muggle bar, just wanted to see what they were like, see if they’re different than wizard ones. We talked, got drunk, and he kissed me on the cheek before disappearing. It was nice. Well, a few nights later I sent him a letter asking if he wanted to come to a park party with me and my other brother and best friend… *smiles at the memory, letting out the descriptions as if she were still there* It was beautiful…*smiles* And we disappeared to his house. He showed me around, his trophies and other household items, and for the first time, I felt right about, well, you know. *blushes* He was my first. We had breakfast on balcony of his house, then I dissaperated to work

*Smiles at some parts and looks serious and downright miserable at other parts*
Your brother din't jus' die on ya? He was murdered? Do ya know who was responsible? I dun't remember anythin' in th' paper on it.
*Mentally organises the long story*
Seems to me tha' it's a great candidate for a song. The pain and eventual happiness with tha' one quidditch guy, eh? Tha' din't last, but th' memory did, right? You were glowin' while you relived it, babe. I love seein' tha'.
*Grabs a quill and ink bottle and jots a few words down on a napkin*

*nods, looking grim*
Yeah... Antoine...
*shakes head.*
They never found them but I had a few run in's with them before then. I end up blaming myself for it...
*sighs,*
Well, I ran into George afterward, broke up with him, ran away to knocturn ally, got caught up in some danger. Dev saved me, the next day we went to the hogshead and George came by. They started fighting, and Sebastian came by and stopped it.
*Smiles*
he's been there a lot for me. But anyways, yeah. Dev and I were together for a while and my parents came and literally came and kidnapped us in our sleep. Tape, ropes, everything. Dev snuck to the Chateau- the house, and I ended it because I didn't want to drag him down with me.

*Nods enthusiastically*
Wha' a money maker-- 'ey, I mean, tha's a right sad story, babe. You got some heroic elements. It 'as it all: brave, rugged quidditch player, your sacrifice fer your love, and tha' sexually confused friend o' yours. Death. Intrigue.
*Glances at Noelle's face, creeping closer from across the table*
Loneliness. Despair. 'Ey you and I aren't so different. 'Cept I 'aven't a house or a family.

*nods*
I should write a book, huh?
*tries to make it a joke, but she can't. Looks up at him as he leans across the table*
you're right. Just a couple of broken hearts, aren't we?
*voice kind of drifts off as she meets his eyes. Begins to lean forward as well. Voice kind of gets a soft kind of breathless sound*
Misery loves company though...

Now, my heart 'as never been broke like tha'. I think I'd rather be penniless than suffer like tha'. Like you.
*Can always recognise a come-on, the corners of his sad lips lifting into a smile*
Lips like company also, eh?
*Stands quietly, brushing his hair out of his face so that he can kiss her cheek, testing the boundaries for now*

Yes, they do
*When he stands up to kiss her cheek, she turns her head so that his lips meet hers. puts her hands on the back of his neck, kissing him sweetly, but deeply as well*

*Deepens the kiss gradually, knowing how fickle females can be*
*Sets his hand on her waist and back, walking them away from and around the obstructing table between them, searching for a sofa out of the corner of his eye*
